A Theme is a structured collection of design decisions that change the appearance of a UI library. An Amplify UI theme allows application wide visual changes through the use of targeted CSS classes and variables.

## Classes

You can override the Authenticator's `amplify-*` classes to Theme the authenticator. For example to style all of the buttons in the Authenticator you could target the `amplify-button` class.

<Example className="authenticator-theme-class-example">
  <AuthenticatorButtonClassExample />

  <ExampleCode>

```css
.amplify-button[data-variation='link']:hover {
  background: none;
  text-decoration: underline;
}
```

  </ExampleCode>
</Example>

<AuthenticatorClasses />

## Variables

You can overwrite the Authenticator's `--amplify-*` css variables to theme the Authenticator. For example the sign in page of the Authenticator uses the `--amplify-components-button-*` css variables to style the sign in buttons.

<Example className="authenticator-theme-variable-example">
  <AuthenticatorButtonClassExample />

  <ExampleCode>

```css
[data-amplify-authenticator] {
  --amplify-components-button-primary-background-color: var(
    --amplify-colors-secondary-80
  );
  --amplify-components-button-primary-hover-background-color: var(
    --amplify-colors-secondary-90
  );
  --amplify-components-button-primary-focus-background-color: var(
    --amplify-colors-secondary-90
  );
  --amplify-components-button-primary-active-background-color: var(
    --amplify-colors-secondary-100
  );
  --amplify-components-button-link-color: var(
    --amplify-colors-secondary-80
  );
  --amplify-components-button-link-hover-color: var(
    --amplify-colors-secondary-90
  );
  --amplify-components-button-link-focus-color: var(
    --amplify-colors-secondary-90
  );
  --amplify-components-button-link-active-color: var(
    --amplify-colors-secondary-100
  );
  --amplify-components-button-link-active-background-color: transparent;
  --amplify-components-button-link-focus-background-color: transparent;
  --amplify-components-button-link-hover-background-color: transparent;
}
